future...

[aefibird]

Did someone say "quit"?????

Stop swearing!!!!!

Quit??? You can quit??? No-one told me that!!

Nah, I can't ever see myself (bad word coming up) quitting martial arts. I love it too much and it's in my blood.

I don't know what the future will hold (although I've heard from a reliable source that death and taxes are a certainty...) but I should think that martial arts will play a part in my life somewhere.

Eventually, I'd like to open up my own dojo and train and teach full time, but whether anything will come of that... who knows? I'm happy enough at the moment just teaching classes in my instructor's dojo and training in karate and other arts.

Currently, I plan to never quit, as well as open a dojo of my own. Of course, I could probably end up changing my mind on whether or not I do that for the rest of my life, but I'm certainly going to have a dojo through college, and perhaps a while afteward.

I've already got two students! (Yay...)

Peace;

Everytime someone asks me this i try to answer with something like 'you can't just decide that you're going to quit swimming. you learned to swim and if you're ever in water you will swim. if i'm ever in need, i will fight. after a couple years, there's no turning back, you can't just decide not to do Martial Arts. you can't just quit kicking doors closed, visualizing little red bullseye marks on people's vital points, etc.'

as far as going to classes though, i already have. i'm on the evening shift at work, and there's no classes in the day time round here. it's unfortunate, but it's the way it has to be for now.

I tend to agree, it isn't something I do, its part of what I am now.

For me I want to continue with my training and have my own karate dojo for my self and other people to join and hopefully other people will enjoy karate as much as I do, its my passion btw.
